Description (Specifications)
The Ras Tennol Oni class Fleet Tender can carry five of these TL–12 warships. The Omega Supreme class Battle Rider was designed to destroy enemy combatants on the front line. They are equipped with back up systems and a low watch to absorb critical hits, but are considered a glass hammer. They carry a very powerful ship killing meson gun, but had to sacrifice hull armor and agility to do so.

History & Background (Dossier)
To augment the Ras Tennol Forces, these vessels can their own marines and fighters to compliment and expand upon the resources of their motherships. Then can be left behind for system defense duties as a monitor. Against enemy battleships they have to overwhelm targets with their numbers and hope to score enough internal hits to disable their enemy before they are crippled.
